Azure SSO Integration
While implementing SSO (single sign on), we recommend opening 2 browser tabs. In one tab open and log into your nOps account, in the other open your Azure account. You will need to copy information from one application to the other in order to sync the information and to allow SSO access with Azure.
This topic is for Clients who log in using an Administrator Role. It assumes that you have nOps configured on your Microsoft Entra ID (This was formerly known as Azure AD).
Steps to configure Azure SSO integration with nOps
Note: We suggest that you keep both the AWS and nOps platform open in the same browser to switch between during the steps.
- Create an Enterprise Application inside Microsoft Entra ID
-
Within your Azure portal, Navigate to Enterprise Applications → All Applications → New Application
-
Fill in the name of your app (For example, “nOps SSO”)
-
Keep the default option Integrate any other application you don’t find in the gallery (Non-gallery).
-
Click Create
- On the nOps platform, navigate to Organizational Settings → SSO to Enable SSO and Select SSO Type: Azure
3. Perform the following steps on the Azure Portal where Enterprise Application creation is in progress.
-
In the getting started section, click Setup Single sign on
-
Select SAML
-
Edit Basic SAML Configuration
-
Copy the Entity ID from nOps SSO integration Details and paste it into the Azure Portal → Enterprise Application → Basic SAML Configuration field Identifier Entity ID.
-
Copy the Assertion Consumer Service URL from nOps SSO Integration Details and paste it into Azure Portal → Enterprise Application → Basic SAML Configuration → Reply URL (Assertion Consumer Service URL)
-
Copy the Shareable Link for IDP Login from nOps SSO integration Details and paste it into Azure Portal → Enterprise Application → Basic SAML Configuration → Sign On Url.
-
Save the details
-
Copy the Login URL from Set up nOps SSO and paste it into the nOps platform → SAML 2.0 Endpoint (HTTP) (singleSignOnService: URL)
